no lifting more weight less times will make you bulkier. less weight more times builds leaner muscle and helps with endurance. you decide. have fun building up that lactic acid.

i think it depends on ur muscles. if ur ripped (exaggerating a little) but if ur ripped 5 lbs isnt gonna feel that heavy, u could probably do 100 easily. 10 lbs might be in ur range so do u would do that. and if u tried 50 lbs 10 times that would too make a difference. 4 isnt alot of reps. neither is 10. i think quantity has more effect than quallity in this one.
so, in my mind it does make a difference.

100 sets of five can give you stamina, 50 sets can do the same. But if you use more weight at lets say 20 sets you build strength.
